Location Rio Grand Village, Big Bend National Park, TX
Rio Grande Village is in the southeastern portion of the park near the Rio Grand river. There is a small visitor center there and an abundance of city park-like terrain. We heard (they sound very similar to their cousin, the red-bellied) and saw this bird while wandering among the trees. We would see a few more throughout the morning.
The yellow coloration was delightful, being so used to the red of the eastern cousins. I suppose the opposite would be true to someone experiencing the Red-bellied after seeing Golden-fronted for years. That's part of the fun of bird watching. Something boring to you might be novel and exciting to someone else.
